OPOLOGY
Using a daisychain topology, you may connect several
Converters together in a master/slave arrangement.
Maximum distance between the units will vary based
upon the number of drops, data rate, wire gauge,
etc. Call Technical Support for specific distance
estimates.
Figure 4-14
shows how to wire the two-pair cables
properly for a Converter daisychain topology.
